"For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be both a doctor and a mother. Now, having these dual roles has fueled my passion to help others also experience the joys of parenthood."

Get to Know Dr. Meyer

Dr. Meyer provides comprehensive, compassionate and individualized care to all of her patients on their journey to parenthood. Says Dr. Meyer, “I believe in empowering patients through education and counseling, and partnering with them to develop care plans that meet their specific needs, values and treatment goals.”

Dr. Meyer enjoys forming long-lasting bonds with her patients, and is known for her warmth, optimism, honesty and empathy. “For as long as I can remember, I wanted to be both a doctor and a mother. Now, having these dual roles has fueled my passion to help others to also experience the joys of parenthood. There is nothing more rewarding than celebrating a positive pregnancy test with a patient. I love hearing updates from families when their babies are born and as their children grow. It is an honor to be a part of each family’s story.”

patient testimonials

"Dr. Meyer was kind, trustworthy and patient with all of our questions. She never treated me like I was just a number. She actually cared when we had a setback and showed excitement when we became pregnant. She called me after I gave birth and asked that we bring our daughter to the office so she can meet her. If I had to go through fertility treatments all over again, I would see Dr. Meyer without a doubt."

“Dr. Meyer is excellent. She takes her time with you to explain the plan of care, procedures...she never made me feel rushed. She returns my phone calls right away. She is extremely knowledgeable and I would 100% recommend her."

“I would highly recommend Dr. Meyer to family or friends. She is a fabulous doctor who proceeds with respect for her patients and for the human body. I would without hesitation go back to her for future fertility treatments. She is a doctor you can trust and one of a kind."
